Fall......What Is It Good For?

Uh, ya, there's no fish out there. Make sure to stay home where it is dry and warm. And when you do go out on a beautiful morning like this, don't worry, some monster wont take off with a brand new drifting lure and all 200 yrds of line less than 60 secs after hitting the water... make sure you are familiar with your surroundings, as it is nasty out there.

thats a fish, not a "run"
No one is saying the fish do not exist.

I guess my reading skills need improving, as I could have sworn, the thread was talking about action in the water, "Top water... Peanuts...?" My bad, i must have been catching beaver after beaver after beaver instead of fish. The guys next to me doing the same must have been Moose.

Did you tell the guy who started the thread to use "Run" so I am not confused next time?

your thread mentioned one fish, excuse me for not being able to read your mind that there were multiple fish around.

My side splitting sarcasm must have had you thinking that was the only one. No worries.

I caught a nice skin sized eel on a darter last night.....but let her go because I'm so ethically pure......... (and had no easy way to carry her).

For whatever reason, I've done better in the spring/early summer than the fall every year since about 2005....prior to that it was the exact opposite. I used to get lots of fish in the spring but mostly shorts...now fewer fish in spring but more large. Fall used to be a few large and tons of blues....now fewer of both.

As always, I blame the seals.

Profile Pic is misleading. 3 weeks ago... 33", lots o' fun, and tasty. That was after I dropped a Blue that was over 40" cuz I was being extra careful landing him (with my luck one of those are gonna take my finger one day, same reason I haven't switched to braid... yet). I am sure it was a blue that ran off with my gear today.

They are bass... love structure and white water... go get 'em! Learned recently that Larry and Sally Bass are actually part of the Sunfish family, Centrarchidae. And now that I know males max out at about 45", I will be throwing back anything larger.
